My guys have been a little more discreet than that, but perhaps they're just good friends. Yes, they do look at lot alike.That is really beautiful, I love the softness of it.
I have an image of what looks like a similar pair of insects to your friendly "fly/bee". I was quite proud of it until you posted your shots which make me realize I get a bit carried away with the levels and unsharp mask on my macros.
Posted this before I'm sure but the similarity of insect is interesting perhaps.
I'm always surprised at the similarities of animals over here and back in the States -- whippoorwills immediately come to mind. I haven't seen one, but I hear them regularly and they sound just like they did in Kansas. Maybe I'm not the only migratory animal.
I sent some photos and a description to an entomological website in Hong Kong... we'll see if I get an answer.
Thanks for the photo.
